Hey Wa'il,
Yes, I have borrowed several videos of the "Fit or Fat" series from the local library. Mostly they are great, very positive and upbeat, but Covert Bailey does espouse the ol' lowfat religion. Too bad.
I just think the chart is nifty because it validates peoples' everyday activity. If you're a mom with a couple of kids and low-income, there's no way you can go to a gym or classes. Or a man whose job is sitting in front of a computer all day.
I think it's great to know that each time you take the stairs, each time you rake the leaves yourself instead of getting the kids to do it, is great. Every little bit helps. Plus, as you noted, there is the extended benefit, beyond the actual activity period.
All arrows point toward getting up off that chair and being as active as possible.
luv from Doreen
